[17Racer]

With the points being very close, and championships on the line. Tech will be very strict. Because we want to see a good race for the championship and no one DQ'ed. I am going to give some information on what will be checked in post race tech.

Springs will be checked. You may NOT have racing springs, spring rubbers or spacers of any kind.

Shocks will be checked. You may NOT have racing shocks of any kind. You must have a stock non-adjustable shock. Mounted in the stock location.

Cars will be checked for excessive camber, you may only have 1 INCH of shims MAX, in the upper control arms.

4cyl

Engines will be checked for aluminum pulleys and other non-stock components.

Car must have a stock air filter assembly. You MAY drill a few holes in the stock air box to obtain a little more air.

Springs will be checked. All springs must be completely stock. Absolutely NO spring rubbers or spacers or any kind.

Cars will be checked for excessive camber in the front and rear.

TRUX

Engines will be checked for non-stock components

Remember NEETS is about Racing and Fun. We are not out to get anyone. We just want to see a good legal race for the championship. So please keep them fast and keep them legal.

Good Luck to all drivers.

The written NEETS rules state; All cars must be "stock" year, make and model with no modifications. This includes all engine components, drive train, suspension and cooling systems.........................
My metric monte carlo SS came with a posi rear from the factory and I have been running it the whole season, does this mean I'll have to take it out for the Mutha......................
UNCLE PETEY......................
P.S. A posi rear wheel can be turned with one wheel on the ground, trans. in neutral................

Posi rears are permitted by the rules. Locked rears are not. Please review and post a clarification. My Cutlass has a factory posi as do most G-Bodies as it was a very popular and cheap option for these cars.

I think you better look that over!! Even I was able to do some digging to find that Posi rears are allowed (the rules only state no locked rears) and that this was a stock option on many models.

I'm sure you don't want everyone mad at you! And hey...if I can find that ANYONE can...lol!!! I am not to *hip* on the mechanical terms YET! (Although I am slowly learning!)

I advise when you see this post to call Joe and go over this. Bob or Petey, if you have free time today before 2:30 (before Josh gets home) can you call Joe and let him know if there are any other discrepancies that should be addressed?? Actually, open call...if anyone disagrees with the aforementioned post because it 1. does not agree with the 2007 rules or 2. like the Posi rear it is a stock option on many car models please call Joe and he will go over all gripes with Josh...and to be certain research will be done on any claims (that's my favorite thing to do...I know, I know...I'm a dork!). 267-767-4923

Thanks!

Yes, that is a typo...Posi's OK, Locked NO.

I'll have Josh edit that above so it reflects the correct statement!

And trux right????? Truck rears are welded. and its no secret... Billy B said yes to that years ago... 39% rear weight was the reason.
